I had a lot of highs and lows while attending Dakota Jr. Sr. High School. I loved playing softball for the school. I think that the coach is very knowledgeable in the sport, allowing me to continue improving my skills. As for the teachers, I was always respectful whether I enjoyed the class or not. Some had different teacher styles that did not allow me to learn to my full potential.

The best part of Dakota was how easy it was to make friends. The school is in the middle of nowhere so we never worry about anything bad happening. One of the worst parts of Dakota was how disrespectful the people there can be but, that's just high school.

As a graduate of Dakota High School, I am very proud of this school. I feel like Dakota prepared me for college and that I am ready to thrive at school. The sports programs are amazing and so are the theater arts programs
